The problem with "thin" paint is not limited to Nissan vehicles. From the days of my second-gen '95 Eagle Talon AWD, it has been the case. I have been keeping my clear bra installer in business. Out of the last 10 cars I bought, 7 had clear bra installed and the last 6 were done by the same installer.
Proof that paint is thinner (and more fragile) is hard to come by, but the water-based paint is not just some rumor. It's been the standard in the last few decades or so.
